Wilson (Unltnl FrM Surr Currmohilit) Washington, July 20 M An 18-month-old baby wltich almost did not get bom at all is now one of the west's most dependable defenders against communism. The name of this prodigy is In ternational Confederation of Free Trade Unions, ICFTU. for short. ICFTU has Just run off its sec ond world congress at Milan, Italy. From It came progress re imports toward a solidly construct ed barrier against communist in filtration into the free world la bor movement. " . The organization came Into be ing and now exists as a challenge to communism. Its membership extends to all- the free world and some of its most important mem ber unions are socialistic, and IC FTU in time doubtless will be to some degree a transmission belt for. socialist politics and econom ics. But right now the outfit is busy keeping the labor dykes firm against the reds. Alliance Hlgnlf leant American members of .ICFTU are the CIO, AFL and John Lew is' United .Mine Workers, a sig nificant alliance. The Free World Labor Confederation is one of the few areas where these three organizations sit down together. ICFTU was born in London Dec. 7, 1949. A year previously the CIO, British and Dutch unions had withdrawn from a sucker trap baited by the Kremlin Im mediately after the war and coll ed the World Federation Qf Trade unions iwi' iuj, .. This red world federation was to have been the greatest,, most dangerous communist front of them all. It was conceived in Mos cow as a device with which com munists would Infiltrate the labor movement throughout the world an they already had wormed their way to power in, for example, the CIO. ' Led by Hillman The late Sidney Hillman led the CIO into Moscow's World Federa tion and a sachem in its structure of position and power. Lee Press man, a self-confessed communist at one time or another, was CIO's general counsel then; Communist dominated unions dominated in turn, the CIO and president Phil lip Murray was their prisoner. For pressman, the wn u wouiu have been a big thing. ' ' The socialist unions or ureal Britain galloped into the picture n pitiful ignorance oi wnar ine communist comrades In WFTU vere plotting. WFTU spread world-wide In a twinkling and Moscow was well on the. way to winning the first reat contest of the atter-war per iod. - Lewis' miners and the AFL held hack: There were jealousies among the three largest Amen. can labor organizations and those lealousies were reason ror going ilow. But most all the miners and the AFL rejected WFTU as a communist project. They and the news dispatches from washing ton hit hard at the CIO's new associates. - Evidence Mounts . The evidence over the years fi nally became sufficient for Mur rav. He took the CIO out In Jan uary, 1949. The following May he, himself, fingered the communists and communist unions In his own CIO.
